Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.
1) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-25765)
CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-22860)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within Rack:Directory. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.
3) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-25500)
CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within Rack::Directory. A remote user can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
4) Improper Enforcement of Behavioral Workflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-13459)
CWE-ID: CWE-841 - Improper Enforcement of Behavioral Workflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper enforcement of behavioral workflow. A remote privileged user can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Observable Response Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-13460)
CWE-ID: CWE-204 - Observable Response Discrepancy
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an observable response discrepancy. A remote attacker can enumerate usernames.
6) Improper control of interaction frequency (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-13212)
CWE-ID: CWE-799 - Improper Control of Interaction Frequency
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper control of interaction frequency. A remote attacker cause a denial of service in the email service.
